GLOBORIA GAME PLAN

2010-04-15T11:03:00.000-07:00

We are working very hard on our game in globoria, we plan to have most of it mapped out by the end of the month. So far we've drawn most of our scenes and have a general idea of what we want to do, but we just haven't got all the coding together. Hopefully we can make some progress with that in the next couple of days.

Emily is the greatest!!

emily is the greatest, forever. the end.

title screen

2010-03-11T11:57:00.001-08:00

we finished the main part of our title screen, now all we have to do is put the buttons in and work a few things out

more add ons for our game

2010-03-05T10:31:00.000-08:00

today i worked on creating cans and litter for the polluted river you have to clean in our game.

Game progress

2010-03-03T11:55:00.001-08:00

So far in our game we have created a title screen and the pass and fail screens, we still have lots of work to do but at least we've got something done.

our flash game in globaloria

2010-01-29T11:34:00.000-08:00

today in globaloria we drew our game characters and backgrounds in flash, next week we are hoping to peace them all together, and hopefully get our game halfway functional.

i hate educational videos

2010-01-22T11:56:00.000-08:00

the videos we watch on the wiki do not help at all, they tell you things about flash that are obvious and pointless.

console games vs. flash games

2010-01-20T11:11:00.000-08:00

i don't have a favorite flash game but i'd have to say that i like all console games a lot more than flash games because they have better visual quality and they have more things you can do with your character, usually the only time i play flash games is when i cant play any other type of game. FLASH SUCKS!!!

Pollution ideas

2010-01-13T06:59:00.000-08:00

we've been doing research for pollution facts in globaloria and its hard to believe how many diseases are caused from pollution, and we are working on ways to work all the facts into our game.

Filming Prototypes

2009-12-09T06:35:00.000-08:00

Today we finished filming our paperprototypes, and im very pleased with our games layout.

our paper prototype project

2009-12-03T12:17:00.000-08:00

today in globaloria we started our paper prototypes, we are doing our game on the effects of pollution instead of drugs, we have finished most of the prototype, but we are going to put the final touches on it monday.

paper prototyping

2009-12-01T11:42:00.000-08:00

today we got into our groups and watched a video about paper prototyping and started working on our own, we haven't got much down on paper but we have a general idea about what we are going to do. our game is going to be about drug abuse and how it effects your day to day tasks.

Fun Quizzes! :)

game topic

2009-11-20T11:46:00.000-08:00

our team has decided to make our game topic about the harmful effects of drug use, i have been looking at some of the other globaloria classes game designs and i have put together a general idea of how we should create our game.

substitutes suck!

2009-11-18T07:01:00.001-08:00

today we have a retarded substitute who knows nothing about flash or autocad and he is annoying, mr. warfield needs to be here

globaloria game ideas

2009-11-12T10:18:00.001-08:00

in globaloria we have been assigned to come up with ideas for an educational video game, so far we have no good ideas but we are working on it.

Patrick my name.

2009-11-10T13:00:00.000-08:00

big sun god pass through sky. water god rain down on us from heaven. long sleep with bears. many many moons through sky ago me find big shiny rock. still have rock. strange thing come today. show me small metal beast. many shiny. little clicky things. metal god.

Mondays.

2009-11-09T11:52:00.000-08:00

Sooo, i have officially come to the conclusion that Mondays are terrible. Simply terrible. The gaming in Globaloria isn't going too quickly, we're being battered with the onslaught of valued peers missing school because of their immunal battle with the H1N1 virus. While spending some of my free time researching this illness, i discovered a great inspiration for an amazing game. what could be better than a swine flu game? Anyhow, homework calls, so i'll have to update on this brilliant idea in the near future :)

WVU!

2009-11-03T07:41:00.000-08:00

i love wvu with all of my heart! virginia tech is awful, and to show my loyalty to wvu i will be burning my blasphemous sweatshirt. WVU forever!!!!

I Apologize!

2009-10-30T07:52:00.001-07:00

Emily IS the greatest, and WVU is amazing. :)

2009-10-30T07:02:00.000-07:00

today in globaloria we were placed into teams in hopes of generating different ideas for games, so far we have decided on a game that raises awareness of the importance of recycling.

2009-10-22T06:53:00.000-07:00

we are now learning to create our own characters in globaloria instead of using the default characters

2009-10-09T06:41:00.000-07:00

i finally finished my flash game in globaloria, it's very complicated but i think i got it all down, i have recently been trying to make the wolf character follow the bunny but no luck so far, hopefully within the next couple of days i will work out all the kinks.

Fall!

2009-10-05T07:29:00.000-07:00

So, since fall officially began on the twenty-second of September, I have been ecstatic. There are so many fun things to do in fall! First Friday in October is amazing, as it is cold enough to legalize buying coffee and hot chocolate. Also, the leaves are simply beautiful. This central theme of fall ties into Globaloria because I have been playing millions of games set in autumn, such as : Autumn Dress Up games, Catch the Leaves, and Pumpkin Pickers. These games really make me appreciate the months preceding winter, and make me excited for the holidays to come.

2009-09-23T11:17:00.000-07:00

3rd World Farmer is very thought provoking, it makes you think about how some people in the world live their lives. However, if I honestly wanted to learn about 3rd world farmers or any other educational fact I would watch the discovery channel rather than play video games. So, overall this is a very good game to play educational wise, but a very bad game to play for fun.

Officialness Begins.
